Have you ever wondered what’s going through the minds of the students sitting in front of you each day in your classroom?
What we want from our teacher.
At Tawa Intermediate they decided to find out what it was that 21st century learners wanted from their school. Two Tawa Intermediate teachers and a small group of students planned an inquiry based on the question 'What goes through the minds of young learners as they prepare for an unknown future?' They recorded their findings on a wiki calledKidspeak.
